Hi all,

To add re Alyx and the teeth - we gave her baby calpol, and she went to sleep. She woke up a lot better and now I have my happy gigling baby back. Thank god, any longer and the monster I had this morning would have been ebayed as well! She's got her chewy toy baby things, but is more interested in inserting them into her father's nose.

As I'm new to the plan, I'm not sure if I'm going right, but today I didn't feel too hungry, so after a late breakfast, then my chunk of low fat mature cheddar (mmmmm..cheddar.......) I only really just had 'lunch' around 5, and don't think I can fit in both my dinner (steak & veggies, followed by white choc ricotta) and a ham rollup! Am I ok to miss the roll up? I'm concious of eating too little, but I just haven't felt that hungry.

Oh, and the white choc ricotta? All legal. There's a special edition white choc flavoured low cal choc drink on the market over here, and a sachet of that mixed with ricotta (with a dab of 0% fat greek yoghurt to smooth it out) is HEAVEN ON A STICK, ladies!

Early this morning..."I am awake and cant get my jammies off.wooohoooo! My big Avon order is in!!! And it was a great day. Everything went ticketyboo. I went for a massage at 8:30. I am pretty relaxed at the mo and should probably get DS ready for school. I cant even get myself dressed.la la la la la la .....
My earning should be around $800. Not bad . Wish it was like this all the time. I am going to put it right into savings.
I have turned down 4 dinner/party invites in the last 2 days. I already said no to 3 others. Can you imagine how crazy it would be if I did them all???? I have in the past. I like the new me. LOL!
I have the Candle Light Vigil tonight, where I am speaking.
I have 6 regular kids today and then 2 extras to help out a friend. SHe is going to have DD over on Thurs. I love that she called and asked for help.
I really must get tidying today and sort out laundry etc.
I have every pot in the house washed and sittnig on the counter ready to put away. I also need to make and grocery list. May take the preschoolers and do that tomorrow. I need to get jammies for DH and DS for their stockings.
OKay, time to get DS on the bus. Maybe I will get dressed."

I showered AND got dressed before 9am!!!! 8 kids playing happily. Just about to make some lunch for the troops. Got my baking list sorted out.
I am going to do some spiced nuts too.

I am having a heck of a time posting. Something with my server. HUGS!!!

Or rather my scale is.

Sometimes I get paranoid and avoid my scale. But I had dropped another five pounds! I was convinced I had gained weight. I keep expecting my scale to go back to 175. But now I am at 160. I was so excited to get in the 160's but now..I can't wait to see the 50's! It has been far, far too long since I have seen it. Probably 6 or so years.
